嘴綠：預測湖人奪冠的球評應該被解僱，錯的太離譜了

And for Draymond Green, those in the media who talk or write about basketball bu
t couldn’t pick up on the Lakers not being an actual contender, it might be tim
e to seek out a new profession.

對於嘴綠來說，那些在媒體上談論或報導籃球的人，他們若無法理解湖人隊不是真正的競爭
者，那也許是時候尋找一個新的職業了。

The Lakers missed the playoffs this season in embarrassing fashion. LeBron James
 was mostly fine, but Anthony Davis was injured often and Russell Westbrook was
a mess. Their bench, meanwhile, was filled with aging veterans and unproven youn
g players.



But while the roster never was good enough to propel them to a title, they still
 should have made the playoffs. For myriad reasons though, there were some progn
osticators before the season who thought it could be the Lakers that won it all.

但是，雖然這份名單從來沒有好到足以獲得總冠軍，但他們仍然應該進入季後賽。儘管如此
，由於種種原因，賽季開始前仍有一些人預測湖人隊可能會贏得總冠軍。

Green explained on his podcast “The Draymond Green Show” why he thinks those p
eople should be canned from their gigs.

嘴綠在他的播客“The Draymond Green Show”中解釋了為什麼他認為這些人應該被解僱。

“There were people that said the Los Angeles Lakers were going to win a champio
nship (this season),” Green said. “If this is what you do (for a living) and y
ou say you’re great and an expert analyst, and you picked the Los Angeles Laker
s to win a championship, you’ve kinda got to be fired. Somebody’s got to start
 holding people accountable. Like, you’re so far off from being right, you ough
t to think about it. There’s 10 teams that’s currently still alive in each con
ference, 20 teams total. THere’s 30 teams in the NBA. You picked that they’d b
eat the No. 1 team, they’re not even 21 or 20. Like, you’re so far off.



“In any other job if you’re that far off – could you imagine being an analyst
 for a venture firm or an analyst on Wall Street and you’re that far off? You’
d lose your job. Somebody’s got to start holding people accountable for these h
ot takes that they expertly, if you will, analyze. I think that’s utterly ridic
ulous, and those people that did that, you have to answer because you just can’
t be that far off. That’s ridiculous.”



Green didn’t go on to say who, specifically, he was referring to. But reading b
etween the lines suggests it could be NBA center-turned-ESPN analyst Kendrick Pe
rkins given the remarks about hot takes Green made, the two’s past history and,
 most importantly, that Perkins said before the season that Los Angeles could be
 a 70-win team.
